Run the Gap is the annual fun run held in Halls Gap, the heart of the Grampians (Gariwerd). In its 13th year, participants can compete in a scenic 6km run / walk along Fyans Creek, a 12km run including a lap across the wall at stunning Lake Bellfield; or challenge themselves in the 21km trail run. This popular event is run by local volunteers contributing back to community and tourism efforts. Run the Gap proceeds go to community projects to extend and enhance bike and walking paths, with the Run the Gap committee advocating for a new shared path from Grampians Road corner to the Halls Gap Zoo.
